yep, that's what I said. However, I didn't say issue won't be fixed.

Despite your patch does fix issue in question, there is no need to
"fix", or modify in any other way, 'src/ipmishell.c', because it isn't
broken. But 'lib/ipmi_delloem.c' apparently is.

If other modules were affected, that would be a generic issue. But it
seems to me they're not. So I would say it's a 'lib/ipmi_delloem.c'
issue.

Re-write 'lib/ipmi_delloem.c' a bit, resp. change the way it handles argc/argv.
